Build a full filename from parts
Syntax
fullfile('dir1','dir2',...,'filename')
f = fullfile('dir1','dir2',...,'filename')
Description
fullfile(dir1,dir2,...,filename)
builds a full filename from the directories and filename specified. This is conceptually equivalent to
f = [dir1 dirsep dir2 dirsep ... dirsep filename]
except that care is taken to handle the cases when the directories begin or end with a directory separator.
Examples
To create the full filename from a disk name, directories, and filename,
f = fullfile('C:','Applications','matlab','myfun.m')
f =
C:\Applications\matlab\myfun.m
The following examples both produce the same result on UNIX, but only the second one works on all platforms.
fullfile(matlabroot,'toolbox/matlab/general/Contents.m') and
fullfile(matlabroot,'toolbox','matlab','general','Contents.m')
